Jahiem Goodall's Success Story
During my apprenticeship with Rosemint and Destiny Outreach, I deepened my skills and confidence as a creative. One of my key takeaways was learning new digital tools for social media, which I began using for my own projects and online presence.
Through the program activities, I gained valuable exposure to professional media environments. Visiting the Field Studios let me see what happens behind the scenes of production—something I had always wanted to experience. I also participated in camera and troubleshooting training, which helped me better understand how cameras and film equipment work in real-world settings.
Beyond the technical skills, I appreciated being surrounded by a supportive community of creatives. Connecting with people who shared my interests and receiving consistent encouragement from the program team gave me a stronger sense of belonging in creative spaces and helped reinforce the goals I already had for my future.
